Apple offers paid time off for employees to get COVID-19 vaccine

Apple is encouraging its employees to get COVID-19 vaccines and is offering paid time off for appointments and paid sick leave for anyone experiencing side effects from the vaccine, reports Bloomberg.

Quoting unnamed “people with knowledge of the matter,” the article says the tech giant has told staff that it doesn’t have access to vaccines, so isn’t providing the shots itself. Retail employees have returned to work as all Apple Stores in the United States have been reopen since March 1, but many corporate employees are still working from home.
